Answer:

v = 747.83 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of bullet, m = 10.7 g

= 0.0107 Kg

mass of the wooden plank, M = 4588 g = 4.588 Kg

speed of the block and the bullet together, V = 1.74 m/s

initial speed of the plank = 0 m/s

using conservation of momentum

m v + M u = ( M + m ) V

0.0107 x v + 0 = (4.588 + 0.0107) x 1.74

0.0107 v = 8

v = 747.83 m/s

now, speed of the bullet is equal to 747.83 m/s.

A 1.90-kg mass vibrating up and down on the end of a vertical spring has a maximum speed of 2.30 m/s. What is the total potentia

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The answer to the question is;

The total potential energy of the mass on the spring when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion is 5.0255 Joules.

Explanation:

To answer the question, we note that the maximum speed is 2.30 m/s and the mass is 1.90 kg

Therefore the maximum kinetic energy of motion is given by

Kinetic Energy, KE = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

Where,

m = Attached vibrating mass = 1.90 kg

v = velocity of the string = 2.3 m/s

Therefore Kinetic Energy, KE = $\frac{1}{2}$ ×1.9×2.3² = 5.0255 J

From the law of conservation of energy, we have the kinetic energy, during the cause of the vibration is converted to potential energy when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion

Therefore Potential Energy PE at end point = Kinetic Energy, KE at the middle of the motion

That is the total potential energy of the mass on the spring when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion is equal to the maximum kinetic energy.

Total PE = Maximum KE = 5.0255 J.

A spring 1.50 m long with force constant 448 N/m is hung from the ceiling of an elevator, and a block of mass 10.9 kg is attache

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the extension in the spring be x .

restoring force = weight of block

kx = mg

x = $\frac{10.9\times9.8}{448}$

= 23.84 cm

b )

When the elevator is going upwards

Restoring force = mg + ma

k x₁ = 10.9 ( 9.8 + 1.89 )

x₁ = 28.44 cm

( y coordinate will be - ( 28.44 - 23.84 ) = - 4.6 cm )

c ) When the cable snaps , both elevator and block undergo free fall . In this case apparent g = 0

Since the spring is stretched by 28.44 cm , a restoring force continues to act on the block which is equal to

.2844 x 448

= 127.41 N

So a net acceleration a will act on the block

a = 127.41 / 10.9

= 11.68 m / s²

The block will undergo SHM with amplitude equal to 28.44 cm .

The position of a particle as it moves along an y axis is given by y = (2.0cm)sin(πt/4), with t in second and y in centimeters.

irina [24]

Part a)

At t = 0 the position of the object is given as

$x = 0$

At t = 2

$x = 2 sin(\pi/2) = 2cm$

so displacement of the object is given as

$d = 2 - 0 = 2cm$

so average speed is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{2}{2} = 1 cm/s$

Part b)

instantaneous speed is given by

$v = \frac{dy}{dt}$

$v = 2cos(\pi t/4 ) * \frac{\pi}{4}$

now at t= 0

$v = \frac{\pi}{2} cm/s$

at t = 1

$v = 2 cos(\pi/4) * \frac{\pi}{4}$

$v = \frac{\pi}{2\sqrt2}$

at t = 2

$v = 0$

Part c)

Average acceleration is given as

$a_{avg} = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}$

$a_{avg} = \frac{0 - \frac{\pi}{2}}{2}$

$a = -\frac{\pi}{4} cm/s^2$

Part d)

Now for instantaneous acceleration

As we know that

$a =- \omega^2 y$

at t = 0

$a = -\frac{\pi^2}{16} * 0 = 0 cm/s^2$

at t = 1

$y = \sqrt2 cm$

now we have

$a = -\frac{\pi^2}{16}*\sqrt2$

At t = 2 we have

$y = 2 cm$

$a = -\frac{\pi^2}{16}*2$

$a = -\frac{\pi^2}{8}$

<em>so above is the instantaneous accelerations</em>
